Why we exist

Making diagnostics accessible and understandable

Healthcare often only becomes visible when something is already wrong. Access to diagnostics is slow, fragmented and dependent on physical appointments. Homed-IQ was founded in 2019, after a personal experience showed how complex traditional diagnostics can be.

Accessible diagnostics

For everyone in Europe, without barriers. Order directly without a GP referral.

Understandable results

With clear explanations and guidance. No medical jargon, just straightforward information.

Preventive care

Helping people recognise health risks early, such as cholesterol, diabetes and HPV.
